Description
Secunia Research has discovered a vulnerability in Blender, which can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a user's system.

The vulnerability is caused due to the insecure use of the "eval()" function in kmz_ImportWithMesh.py. This can be exploited to execute arbitrary Python commands by tricking a user into importing a specially crafted "*.kml" or "*.kmz" file.

The vulnerability is confirmed in version 2.42a. Prior versions may also be affected.

Solution
Update to version 2.43, which no longer includes the affected script.

Provided and/or discovered by
Stefan Cornelius, Secunia Research.
